biography

Paul Wainwright is a photographer who works in a traditional manner utilizing sheet film, a large-format camera, and silver gelatin printing.
Working with traditional photographic media,
he achieves in his prints a sense of quiet contemplation that comes from the slow, Zen-like pace of creating his images.

Wainwright's work has appeared in numerous juried competitions and solo exhibitions, most recently at the Baldwin Gallery at Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro, Tennessee,
the Panopticon Gallery in Boston, Massachusetts, the Mugar Art Gallery at Colby-Sawyer College in New London, New Hampshire,
the Martin Museum of Art at Baylor University in Waco, Texas, and the Edgewater Gallery in Middlebury, Vermont.

Wainwright’s work is included in the permanent collections of both private and corporate collectors,
including the Boston Public Library in Boston, Massachusetts, the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, Texas, the Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, Massachusetts,
the Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center in Hanover, New Hampshire, and the New Hampshire Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in Stratham, New Hampshire.
Wainwright’s first published photography book, A Space for Faith: The Colonial Meetinghouses of New England, was released in early 2010.
